"Any great work of art... revives and re-adapts time and space, and the measure
of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world-
the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its strange, special air."
AUTHOR: Leonard Bernstein
MEANING OF THE QUOTE:
"A great piece of music can transport your imagination
back in time, ahead in the future, make you laugh
or cry, and send you to exotic places."
"A great piece of music can transport your imagination
